| One of these projects was a series of paintings
inspired by, but not replicating, petroglyph motifs: re-translating these
images in paint on canvas, taking liberties with both color and form.
He has been working on stained glass in the last few years, often incorporating wood carving which extends beyond the glass itself. |
